WTF

I would call this a bad movie, it doesn't follow the original in any way and the acting sucks. But this movie is insane! I can't help but recommend it, this movie makes no sense and so much happens I can't help but like it. Random stuff happens out of nowhere, characters say random stuff, and all if a sudden the Police Cheif has random powers even though he isn't a Reptiod. You know, that's all this movie is, it's just random stuff happening. It's a bad movie but if you have some drugs laying around I would recommend it.

Taken from the Anime of the same title (or AKA Supernatural Beast City) by Kawajiri Yohiataki, it lacks the visceral punch of the original. I was sorely disappointed with the "soft-core" shots and "soft-core" action. It coulda been a contenda...
